N.A.N.Y. 2011 / Re: NANY 2011 Release: Color Warlock
« Last post by hamradio on February 17, 2012, 12:57 PM »
If you can track down a pattern I will be more than happy to look into why it is doing that as I am not able to get it to reproduce myself, but it still could be there I just may not be doing the right thing to cause it.

@hamradio - thanks very much for this app., so useful and helpful : just one small problem with the latest version - sometimes when I Maximize the main window I can't change the size any more, it's either Maximized or in the Taskbar. I solved this by deleting the settings.dat file, but as I said this doesn't happen every time ...

FARR Plugins and Aliases / Re: hamNotes (A FARR2 Plugin by hamradio)
« Last post by hamradio on February 14, 2012, 12:27 PM »
Great plugin, congratulations.
Please keep it minimalistic. Just three small additions that may bust productivity.

1) hnote /t [text]     ; search something in the title only, now there is /k for keywords, but not a specifier to search in title only.
2) add a simple way (upfront) to switch among different databases, instead to have just one.
3) add ^C in the window search results to copy the note itself (now it copies just the date).

Many thanks!
-science2002 (February 14, 2012, 07:51 AM)

1) Not sure if its possible at the moment with the plugin api to search just the title as for searching the keywords it works by only displaying the keyword as it doesn't show the rest of the note.

2) Perhaps at some point.

3) You can press Ctrl + R after selecting the one you want, then arrow down to the Note to Clipboard sub menu and choose one there. As for Ctrl+C, I think that is a FARR deal that can not be changed from the plugin api that always copies the text in the status bar, but I may be wrong.

Your welcome glad you like it. :)

Hope the info I provided helps for copying.

2. Custom color chart menu now creates sub-menu groups.
3. A few menu icon designs has been updated.


First post for download link or download through the link in the check for updates screen.

If you use php as the page you can also use I am sure something like this for those who does not allow scripts it will still work...

Code: PHP [Select]
  1. <?php
  2. if (date("Ymd") == "20120118")
  3. {
  4. header("Location: http://www.americancensorship.org/");

33% off any one title on Steam listed with Valve as the publisher.
Excludes titles released after January 2nd, 2012.

EARLY BETA RELEASE #2: (from Version 1.0.0.1 to Version 1.0.0.73)

1. DropZone was not loading/saving the LauncherApplication setting under certain circumstances should be fixed.
2. Fixed the backup save routine to where it should now display the right month and year of the older launch file backups.
3. DropZone settings now use the same backup routine as the launch files.

See first post for download link or use the built-in update checker button to open in the default browser the download url which will allow you to save it.

Enjoy! :)

Development notes on some stuff here...seeing as how last night was only a temporary fix I have converted all the previous xml code over to a serialization routine that will hopefully ensure it does what it is suppose to from now on. :)  A small update sometime in the next week perhaps.

Thats fixed it, I'll let you know if it changes back.

I downloaded and extracted again and opened PEW_DropZone.exe and the xml it generates does the same thing.

Great program by the way, thanks.
-thomasp67 (October 05, 2011, 06:14 PM)

Oops added the wrong test file into the download please redownload. Then it should be fixed for good.

And a big thanks to you for working with me to help get a better handle on it. The first was a little broad and couldn't find it.

Yes, both files are in the same folder. I don't know if it makes any difference but here's the PEW_DropZone.xml file, is the <LauncherApplication /> node supposed to be empty?


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!--Settings for Portable Extension Warlock - Drop Zone-->
<!--Last Modified: 6/10/2011 10:56:42 a.m.-->
<Settings>

 <LauncherApplication />
</Settings>
-thomasp67 (October 05, 2011, 05:55 PM)

No and that is a clue try changing it to: <LauncherApplication>PEW_Launch.exe</LauncherApplication>

If that works I may need you to test a solution when I figure out why it is not writing that setting for you. Let me know please.

Actually try downloading it again from same place and make sure the modified date of the DropZone is 10/05/2011.  If it is try that version for me and see if I have corrected the issue.

Is the PEW_DropZone.exe in the same directory as the PEW_Launch.exe?

Does it popup a messagebox saying...

---------------------------
Error!
---------------------------
PEW_Launch.exe was not found in the dropzone folder.
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

(Ctrl + Copy) on a message box will copy the contents of it. If it is different than that then let me know a little more on what it says so that I can track it down.

Cannot get DropZone to work.

PortableExtensionWarlock.exe works fine - added Notepad++
Launched DropZone - created the icon on my desktop
dragged a txt file on it - got the error message that "Could not be found" - does not say what could not be found

Windows XP SP3 , .Net4
-capitalH (September 08, 2011, 01:58 AM)

Sounds like it is having trouble finding the application at the path you entered that will handle the txt file.  You can download it again the version hasn't changed but I uploaded one that changed the area I think it is to tell you what couldn't be found.  So you might try that and report back.

Description
Build a launch file to launch files of certain types in certain applications skipping the system file associations.  You should be able to use this as well on portable devices as long as the computer you intend to use it on has .NET 4.0. by using the DropZone that is included.

Features
Portable enabled.
Shows an open with menu when it detects you have more than one type of an extension in the launch file configuration.
You can also create application listings with specific command line arguments to do certain things for you when launching the file.

Screenshots

The launch file editor...

The DropZone with the built-in form skin.

The launcher when it has detected that you have multiple file extensions of the same type in the launch file configuration.
screen_openwith.png

Usage

Installation
Extract to an application folder outside of the normal program files folder making sure to extract it with folder structure intact.

Using the Application
To act as a launcher for file types you specify from the launch file editor.  For non flash drive you can add a shortcut in the SendTo folder of your system that points to the launcher. Then when you right click a file goto the Send To menu and select the shortcut to launch with the launcher.  This also has the added benefit of not having to change file associations on the system.  Currently to use from your flash drive or portable hard drive you would need to use the DropZone with the launcher and launch configuration file in the folder that the DropZone is.

DropZone Skins
Any png file with alpha transparency placed into the skins folder.

ac_arguments.dat
Feel free to edit that file in your favorite text editor for argument auto complete to show up when adding and/or editing an application.  Note: One set of arguments per line.

Help File
Please note that the help file is not done.

Uninstallation
Just delete the application folder.

Known Issues
Currently do not know of any.
